If you're anything like me -- and chances are you are, because you're awesome -- you learned your love of sports and more specifically the Buckeyes from your father. From tossing the ball around in the backyard, to sharing the pain of late Novembers in the 90s, it's a bond forged by generations of Ohioans and Ohio State graduates. It's an important part of a shared identity and transcends the good and bad, both on the field, and in real life.
Thank you, fathers.
